Wow that is no "little" accident by your roommate!!! WOW and now what?

This is why no one drives my cars and I never drive other friend's cars ~ never worth the friendship risk. Funny thing is none of my buddies EVER want to drive my cars even when I offer (probably for the same reason)....

Cars can always be bought back, girls and time cannot - you made the right choice Hyper, don't regret it now.

I guess the term "Dog is a man's best friend" is old and with the new: "Car is a Man's Best Friend".
Believe it or not there are slightly used F's out there for under $50K..
Yeah I know that even $50K is a lot..

i think letting friends drive your car would be a bad move. you take great care of your car. and though we can trust our friends, we never know how they really drive. this also goes for those technicians at lexus or even third party service sites. ive noticed that when i saw an F or even 250/350 pull up in the service department, the first thing when you hand them the keys is that they rev it good and let it rip, and theres a section behind the dealership i USED to go to and they'd just let loose even for a little bit. never, EVER trust anyone with your precious rides!

I had a decision like this once. I had a 1st gen IS back in 2001, got my hands on one as soon as I could. Couple months later I had been dating this girl and she dropped me at the airport and borrowed it. Asked her not to take it downtown but she did anyway. Came home and found it had been curbed.

I had a decision to make....car or girl. I got married.

She filed for divorce this year. At least I have the IS-F to console me.

Hmm thats funny. My fiancee is ok with having 2 AMGs(c36,clk55). Soon to replace one AMG with a ISF. I don't even have to finance even with the wedding in 2011.

Im Sorry!!!
But I have to ask....How do you go from an ISF to a 4cylinder Camry?

I had to sell mine due to some upcoming life changes. I think I might need to pickup a used one, or maybe look at a 2010 if the prices drop. Or maybe try out the M3? But when I think about it, there are very few cars that can provide the total package of the ISF!

If anyone in Canada wants to trade there ISF for a like new 2010 White Camry 4 cyl with Leather/Moonroof, let me know.
